Exactly.

Good question.  It seems some people like it, for whatever reason.
It does allow you to use procmail to split personal/mailing list
mail.  Then you can run xbiff (say) on the personal file only.  And
you can use a `directory' mail-sources entry to get the messages into
Gnus, where they are split again.

(Of course, two `file' entries would also do.)
